[F13] thunderbird-3.1.1-1 won't restart
by Joachim Backes 23 Jul '10

23 Jul '10

Hi, having big problems with the new thunderbird-3.1.1-1: After exiting a running thunderbird-3.1.1-1 and starting it again, nothing happens: No error message or something similar. Logging out or restart does not help. I had to downgrade thunderbird for getting it to run again. Somebody has similar problems? -- Joachim Backes <joachim.backes(a)rhrk.uni-kl.de> http://www.rhrk.uni-kl.de/~backes

Not using nspluginwrapper. You'll note below I don't have Totem installed. I haven't used it since F9. I discovered it was causing many of my streaming video problems. I used yum to remove it, and installed mplayer (now gecko-mediaplayer) in its place. About:plugins Installed plugins Find more information about browser plugins at mozilla.org.

Non-graphical Boot and Terminal Font
by David Liguori 23 Jul '10

23 Jul '10

I prefer to boot in non-graphical mode then load the Xwindow system, or not, as desired. To this end I set my default runlevel to 3 and delete the option "rhgb quiet" in grub.conf, as is well documented. In past releases the startup messages would change from 80 to 132 columns early on (no doubt in preparation for displaying them in a graphical window during startup if you choose that option) , but the shell prompt in the end was back to 80 columns. In F13, though, it remains small. This is hard on my eyes. How do I get back to an 80-column shell? My searches on this topic have been surprisingly unproductive. I either get hits on changing the xterm display, which is a whole other thing, or passing a vga option to the kernel. The latter can't be right because the change is *after* Grub passes control to the kernel. I tried this and, indeed, it still changes to a small font during start-up. "stty cols 80" does not seem to work. In any case, I'd prefer to find where it changes to a small font in the first place and stop it. David

suggestions for png markup
by jack craig 23 Jul '10

23 Jul '10

Hi Folks, I work in a web-based application provider context. As there are issues/comments regarding the display of application, its common for me to use the screenshot tool to grab a copy of the screen display to a .png file for support to address. that part is fine. What I am missing is an easy way to markup a .png with boxes, arrows, etc to further communicate what it is about the .png to be addressed. gimp seems too heavy weight for this, OO's draw isnt that friendly, and ! am unaware of other options. This is where y'all come in, anyone got a good suggestion for my missing markup tool? Last year, I was working for M$ and vista had one nice feature, a simple screenshot/markup tool in one app. Thats kind of what I am looking for in terms of usage... anyone? TIA, jackc... -- Jack Craig Software Engineer 831.461.7100 x120 www.extraview.com

fedora apps and mobile phone

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bonjour, I am seeking for a mobile phone with calendar applications which could be easily synchronized with thunderbird lightning extension under fedora. I use lighthing to manage a "central" calendar on IMP at my university and I would like to be able to do the same with a mobile phone, but, I don't want an "internet mobile phone", an USB port, or/and bluetooth or/and WIFI on the mobile would be enough for me. Does anybody has some ideas (about the mobile phone (great)) or where I can ask such a question?

thunderbird 3.1.1 - how to create IMAP account
by Joerg Bergmann 23 Jul '10

23 Jul '10

I have some trouble creating a non-standard IMAP account within actual thunderbird. At first, thunderbird asks for my email address and tries som automatism. Of course that fails for my university account as well as for my private mail provider (strato) account. So I must go to manual installation. But at this point, POP is preselectet and there seems to be no way for selecting IMAP. How to create a "non-standard" IMAP account? Thank you.

poll() returns even if there is data.
by Mansuri, Wasim (NSN - IN/Bangalore) 23 Jul '10

23 Jul '10

I am trying to read some file using open and read system calls. Here in my code I am doing open than poll and if poll returns with the event POLLIN than read. Even if poll returns with the event POLLIN read returns 0, that means no data. My question here is, Am I using poll() properly? can we use poll to read the files like I am reading? If we can not use poll than is there any other way using which I can get to know if there is some data in the file after I did last read()? I am pasting code snip below. if((fd = open(fileName,O_RDONLY))==-1){ printf("File opened Failed errno=%d\n",errno); return (0); } loc = lseek(fd,0,SEEK_END); fds[0].fd = fd; fds[0].events = POLLIN; fds[0].revents = 0; while(1){ ret = poll(fds,1,timeout); printf("poll returned with ret = %d, events = %d, revents=%d, errno =%d \n",ret,fds[0].events,fds[0].revents,errno); if(fds[0].revents){ if((bytRcvd = read(fd,buff,1024))>0){ printf("%s",buff); } else{ printf("Read Failed on %s with retValue = %d Errno = %d \n",fileName, bytRcvd, errno); sleep(2); } } } Above code always throws following output. poll returned with ret = 1, events = 1, revents=1, errno =0 Read Failed on /var/log/messages with retValue = 0 Errno = 0

Gnome Setting Daemon Crashing - Fix?
by KC8LDO 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

I've looked around and found a bunch of reports about the gnome-settings-daemon crashing at login. Has a solution been found yet? It seems to work OK on my 32 and 64 bit Fedora-13 systems, but on the 32 and 64 bit Fedora-11 systems it doesn't. Regard; Leland C. Scott KC8LDO "We are not anti-immigrant, we are pro-immigrant.
